    Ask Dr. Sears about Vaccines

    Tuesday, December 11th, 2007

    Today was my daughter’s 15-month check-up. For some reason, I had thought that this was “the appointment” with no shots (I think that must be the 18-month appointment), but I was wrong.

    Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

    Finally. That’s what I kept thinking as I read through Dr. Bob Sears’ newest book, entitled, “The Vaccine Book: Making the Right Decision for Your Child” (Little, Brown, and Company, 2007).
    For a long time, I have wished that there was a comprehensive resource about vaccines from someone I could trust.
